The actress is reportedly so strapped for cash that she's considering doing porn to pay the bills! And while LiLo has been offered (and turned down) numerous porn offers over the last couple of years, sources claim she's perking up at a $2.5 million deal that came her way at the tail end of 2012.

The deal would not require Lindsay to engage in sex with another person -- it would be a "self-pleasure" porno similar to the one that the Octomom did last year. (And we all know how well that turned out.) This is just one step further from the racy Playboy shoot we saw at the end of 2011, so it's not like she's never been naked in front of the cameras before -- so we can definitely see her doing it again. If she moved forward with the offer, it would be marketed as a pay-per-view special.

"Every time her law­yers go to court it's another $50,000. It's unsustainable and she must know she's running out of options fast," said a source to Showbiz Spy. "A move into porn isn't ideal -- especially if she wants to return to mainstream film acting. But right now, she's not in a position to pick and choose."

While this might be a temporary solution to her cash troubles, it almost definitely won't solve her professional woes. The unwritten rule in Hollywood is that "accidentally leaked" sex tapes can boost a career, but intentionally released pornos are the equivalent to putting a gun to your career's head and pulling the trigger.
